That poor woman. God damn.

If I were a woman I'd never have sex again with a man or I'd move the fuck out and claim refugee status in Canada.. God damn.

Many of these states don’t have an exception for rape. So the only choice women get is whether or not they live in the state.

And not everyone can afford to just pack up and move somewhere else.

No need to move to Canada. There are plenty of states with much looser laws. My own, Oregon, has made some adjustments to better accommodate women traveling from conservative states to the east like Idaho.
